Ribes aureum, the golden currant, is closely related to clove currant, R. odoratum, and often mixed up in the nursery trade. Golden currant, in my experience, is more upright growing and has a yellower cast to the leaves. Its berries are small, sparse, and not very tasty. Perhaps that's what you have. None of the currants ripen off the plant.
